German term or phrase: Abzieher
Teigstücke abwiegen. Bei 3/4 Gare auf Abzieher stürzen and nach Wunsch schneiden.
It is about industrial backing
Desre
English translation:rack
Explanation:
Muret-Sanders lists "racker" for Abzieher in the context of breweries, and that got me to thinking that bakeries, too, use racks for their products.

Storage racks, cooling racks, etc., even rack ovens (cf. www.bakery-net.com/rdocs/rvnthist.html).

It also occurs to me that "abziehen" in this context might refer to "Wärme abziehen lassen", making the Abzieher a cooling rack - but that's just a guess.

See if it'll fit into your context.

...when the product is about 3/4, place on rack...

Explanation:
I can't tell you this for sure, but it makes sense considering the context and the other meanings of the word, which have to do with removing or pulling something away.

Explanation:
I imagine this is comparable to the Abziehen in wine-making. Thus, it refers to the place where a sample is drawn from freshly made product.

Cheerio,
